In particular, the exhibition features several examples of Tennessee furniture, including the rare Wilson County Sugar Sideboard recently given to the Brooks by the Decorative Arts Trust. Likewise, it offers visitors a chance to see works from the Wolfe Bequest, which brought an extraordinary group of early Mississippi quilts into the collection.
